Chilean Lake District (south): Casa Kalfu

Casa Kalfu

With its charming exterior inspired by traditional local architecture, Casa Kalfu is a popular budget choice. It looks like a large, rambling Chilean country house, with the unusual addition of a coat of bright royal blue paint (its name means 'blue' in the Mapuche language). Inside, the 14 cosy rooms are unpretentious, yet appealing, with simple furniture and a few Patagonian handicrafts. Downstairs, you'll find a homely breakfast room and there's a selection of places to eat within a 10-minute walk.

Nandu: Peaks and plains of patagonia | Tour rating: Excellent

Excellent place to stay, comfortable and stunning views of the volcano though we suspect this may change when the building work across the block is completed.

"Lovely boutique hotel on the edge of Puerto Varas. We had a view of the lake and also the volcano - when the mist had cleared. Two lovely and very friendly hotel cats in residence in the lounge. I hope everyone there is OK - especially the friendly hotel cats - after the recent eruption of Calbuco."

Nandu: Peaks and plains of patagonia | Tour rating: Excellent

Stayed two nights, three nights apart. First room was quite basic and small. Second room much better. Is a fairly simple hotel - but clean etc, breakfast adequate
